Middle management in federal government. Some of them actually do nothing at all ever.

Here's another one. Any professional athlete.
 Quoting: Hawgzilla


Since millions/billions of people tune in to watch sports every day, I would nearly say that it would be one of the most important roles.

People need to be entertained.

Actors would be high on the list too for that reason.

Imagine if you had no tv, no movies to watch, no sports to view or talk about?! How bored would you be, and what would that boredom lead to?
Do not take memories of what happened yesterday, into what might happen today.

When love is your greatest weakness, you will be the strongest person in the world.

I don't need TV, movies, actors or professional athletes to keep me entertained. I prefer to be outdoors hunting, fishing, trapping, camping and shooting.
Ban guns to "save the children" but killing them in the womb is totally cool......I see; it makes perfect sense now.

Re: What is the most useless profession in the world?
I disagree about athletics, they are a type of entertainer and if you are going to include them you should include all entertainers. I would suggest that the professional welfare reciepiant, not the single moms, but those that spend all they're time looking for ways to scam the system. Also the people that send spam to my email trying to scam me out of my money without them haveing to do much work.

Lawyers, politicians, administrators, psychiatrist/psychologist, lobbyist, telemarketers, insurance, activist(paid), community organizer(any), and a new one on my list, Supreme Court Justices; because their only job is to defend the Constitution, yet they can't seem to spot any 'problem' with torture or indefinite detention ala NDAA and Patriot Acts, nor understand what 'natural-born' means!

Re: What is the most useless profession in the world?
Anyways, here's the answer - you guys ready?? Here it is... here it comes...


A body builder. Yes, that's right, a body builder. Body builders produce ZERO wealth yet consume the most. They are not only useless eaters, they produce the most negative wealth. A banker for instance produces zero wealth, but he doesn't consume 600 grams of protein a day just so he can look sculpted. None of the muscle body builders use goes towards producing any wealth, all muscle is used only for building more muscle! Biggest useless eater ever.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 7076757


Wow....did you come up with this one all by yourself?

So what is fueling the entire health based industry?

Hmm?

Here, by the term "useless", I mean precisely that, a useless eater. I know the answer. Any takers? The answer isn't something strange or esoteric, it's actually quite simple if you think about it for a moment. It's also a profession you will find most common in the USA.

Yes, that's correct too, but body builders take the cake because they consume more than all athletes.

Professional athletes get paid obscene amounts for playing games. It's ridiculous.

Aside from them...

PREACHERS!
